Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, dissolve yeast in water (it should be slightly warmer than body temp, between 105 and 115 degrees Fahrenheit); let stand 5 minutes.

Add enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.

Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
Punch dough down.

Bake at 375 for 20 minutes or until tops are golden.
